Arts in the Alley stepped back in time last Thursday evening with a crowd decked out in fedoras and fringed dresses for the Al Capone Speakeasy. The event, called the Third Thursday Birthday Bash, was presented by JamJam Productions and (Mix)ed Media. It featured jazz-era dancers from Swing Columbus (above) and drag king troupe the Royal Renegades, along with DJ Julia Applegate (below).
